Nutella Mug Cake- 5 minute mug cake for a quick chocolate fix.
I am in a dilemma about the recipe I am posting today.
Should I share this recipe
or
spare you from the depression
the knowledge of this recipe would cause.
In case you have resolved to get back in shape this new year,
I warn you to NOT read any further.
Nothing can be done about me.
I have been in on this knowledge,
but
there is still saving grace for you.
Stop reading.
Now.
I mean it.
And I am only saying it for your own good.
Ok.
If you still want to continue, it’s at your own risk.
I only became aware of it recently.
And believe me, I could not be more happy with God for
keeping me in the dark about this little cake.
I tell you its a dangerous cake.
Its going to make you cry as to how easy it is to make it again and again.
No.
Chocolate cake should not be THIS easy.
No.
Its unfair.
And on top of it being easy to make,
its in your hands in flat 5 minutes-
the mixing of ingredients, cooking time all included.
With only one utensil to wash
(well, two if you count the spoon you going to use to eat it.)
Just grossly unfair.
Out go the pre-marriage jeans I want to fit into.
this cake will soon become one of your best friends.
It will be by your side in minutes when you are down.
Giving you comfort.
And you all know how difficult it is to ignore that friend.
You will eventually cave in to like it.
Like I have.
It is my new best friend.
Now,
you could have it as is.
Or,
with some whipped cream.
Since you indulging, you might as well do it right.
Right?
And,
you could throw in
some strawberries.
For good measure.
well,
for something that dirties only a mug
and
takes 5 minutes to make from start to finish,
it is pretty darn good.
You don’t have a very spongy cake like texture
but
its nice and chocolatey
and
that works for me
and
I think
its safe to say
it would too for most of you.
The good (or bad?) part of the cake,
as V put it,
is that its not too sweet.
So you can have bite after bite.
Yes, V, you can afford to say that when you have only 1% body fat!
(why would you want to do that?!that means another utensil to wash!)
but in case you do,
it would be better if you mix all the ingredients in a different bowl
and
grease the mug you plan to bake it in.
The cooking time will depend on your microwave
and
the only way for you to find out is to make repeat batches.
Yes I told you, you will hate me after reading this recipe.
It takes anywhere between 1 1/2 to 3 minutes.
It took mine 2min 30 sec.
So here you have it, the Nutella Mug Cake recipe.
I hope you enjoy (and curse this recipe) as much as I do.
